ness perjured himself in manner most
appalling to the Gentle conscience" l
challenge You to give the.names of the
periurers and cases and the proofs of
perjury. If the Mormons are such Nj
agara perju-ers. why are they not con-
yicted and imprisoned for the felony
Wouidlnot Zane, Dickson, ct al, be Joy
| fully glad TO send them to the Peniten-
tiary for perjury if they could?
"Most appalling to the Gentle con-
science THAT'S both appetizlng and re-
| freshing. How many Gentiies do you
suppose there are in Utah who would
hesitate, whit, to perjure themselves
| for six months, every hour of the time,
if, by so doing, they could sell thou
sand dollar lead mine FOR hundred
thousand dollars?
If there is thing on earth more elias
tic than the anti Mormon conscience. L
would like to learn its name. India
rubber can't hold candle TO it.
At every important mining suit there
are mountains upon mountains OF per-
juries.
The anti-Mormon conscience is so
elastic it would, if it could, encompass
all the treasures and offices now held by
the Mormons, and all their properties
which they would gladly conhscate, and
all their beautiful wives and daughters.
and these very anti-Mormons are some
of Kate Fields most devoted roust-
abouts.
"Polygamy is tn second great crime
of which the Mormons are guilty. The
first is treason" If you have read up
in Mormon history, as you profess to
have done, you know the Mormons are
Loyalty and periodically attached to the
government of the United States, which
they have exhibited these pre-eminent
traits to a patent and conspicuous de-
gree; the evidence of which runs all
through their tragic history.
1.-The Mormons.took uplall the land,
80 the Gentiles could get none" In
1880, Utah had 655. 524 acres of land I'M
der cultivation. These were cut up into
9.452 farms, which makes an average of
sixty-nine acres to the farm. The size
of the average farm in Idaho, in 1880,
was TIA acres; Colorado, 259 acres; Wy
oming, 272 acres; Nevada, 378 acres;
Montana, 267 acres; California, 463
acres; Dakota. 21S; New Mexico, 125
acres; Oregon, 260 acres; and the United
States, 1874 acres. There are millions of
acres of good land in Utah unoccupied
by Mormons. Can't you, even by acci
dent. tell the truth about the Nor
mons?"
He told barefaced lie." Another
awful falsehood." HE stated what was

How appetizingl
"Apostates and Gentiles are to be
blood atoned." If put in the witness
box, what proof, under oath, could you
give in support of these and kindred
Treason is the first principal object
of the Mormons." Answered above.
Il have heard the Mormon bishops at
ward meetings tell the congregations
how to vote" Another falsehood.
Names OF bishops and wards, please.
Brigham Young cursed the govern
ment, the troops and the Gentiles, and
said he would send them all to hell on
wooden legs, and that they had better
was cheap" Another evidence of your
matchless gift in economising the truth
and slandering the distinguished dead.
l challenge you to give time, place, book
or page.
II have seen the grandmother, the
mother and the child all the wives OF
one man."
You should be made to prove this be-
fore court authorized to take evidence
and to convict for libel. Dare you give the |
names CT this man and his wives? WHY |
don't you have the man imprisoned7
You can't prove anything in Utah
that is, worth proving" As claptrap-
st Kate f. is champion. Is it worth |
proving that you are unreliable. or am |
spending my time fruitlessly? Let |
he public judge.
The women are ugly, dirty, ignorant |
beasts" How queenly, lady-like and |
charitable! 1t might almost pay the

"Mormonism is death to patriotism. :"
Had you said prostitution, yes.
Mormonism is organized treason. 1t |

superior to the anti-Mormon product.
Every record in Utah attests this unim.
Deachable statement.
The whole Mormon theory impliss

The patent fact is Mormon women
enjoy greater freedom of thought and
